Review request for Plasma.


Changes
-------

-updated the patch to the latest svn
-using Plasma::Applet::showMessage instead of KMessageBox
-removed hidePopupAfter(int)
-change icon on the insertion of a new device even if the popup is shown
-many others style issues and oversights fixed


Summary
-------

This is a patch that modifies quite heavily the behaviour of the Device Notifier.
It comes from here: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Device+Manager?content=106051
It can show the not removable devices too, it can mount them automatically or with a click, since the "eject" button is a "mount" button when the volume is umounted. So that guy on the dot will be ok.
It can hide some items in the same way as Dolphin's places (hide item/ show all).
Finally, it shows the various opening actions under the device instead of calling that xp-ish window.

Testing
-------

I'm using it every day since I released 0.1 on Kde-look. I tried all the options on my pc and they work. Some people on kde-look posted some comments about some problems, but it seems to me they are very particular cases, so in my opinion it is quite stable to go in trunk, but anyway review it! :)
